Nominate Yourself for DLC’s Industry Advisory Committee

The DesignLights Consortium (DLC) is accepting self-nominations through October 3 from small lighting manufacturers, lighting specifiers, and lighting distributors interested in serving on the DLC Industry Advisory Committee (IAC).

An advisory body that meets quarterly, the IAC supports the mission and strategic direction of the DLC to promote the adoption of quality lighting and controls technology through education, collaborations, and expertise. Its activities include consideration of DLC business updates, programs to enhance lighting quality, utility lighting program participation, and ongoing opportunities, challenges, and potential risks related to advancement of energy-saving lighting technologies.

The DLC is seeking new members for a two-year term that begins the third quarter of 2025 from the following organization types:

•       Small lighting manufacturers (companies with fewer than 250 employees, with product(s) listed on the DLC’s Solid-State Lighting or Horticultural Qualified Products Lists);

•     Lighting specifiers, including designers, energy service companies, consulting engineers and integrators; and

•      Lighting distributors

“As a consortium, the DLC relies on the expertise and perspectives of leaders across the lighting industry to shape our direction and advance our mission,” said DLC Executive Director and CEO Tina Halfpenny. “The Industry Advisory Committee is not only vital to our success, but also serves as a critical voice for the entire consortium by helping to anticipate emerging trends, guide innovation, and ensure that the DLC remains at the forefront of market transformation. We look forward to expanding IAC representation through this nomination process.”

The IAC does not cast votes or serve a fiduciary role. Rather, IAC participation is aimed at providing feedback and representing the interests of committee members’ respective industry roles or sizes — not the interests of individual companies. The DLC is gathering self-nominations through an online form, which must be submitted by October 3. The DLC will appoint new IAC members following the nomination deadline.
